[service review] 70-minute facial & eye treatment by THANN

Image
When I am packed with a busy schedule, one of the ways I have to de-stress is to pamper myself with a great facial/spa session.  I got very excited when I received a lovely invite from  THANN  Singapore that allowed me to experience their first boutique store in Paragon Shopping Centre and I received a 70-minute facial which included an eye treatment too! Lately, due to my hectic lifestyle, my skin wasn't in a good condition. My complexion is dull and feels dry at times. I scheduled it immediately on a weekend because my skin was in desperate need for some rejuvenation. The facial therapist started off by removing my eye makeup with the  Astringent Cleansing Water   and this was followed by a Purifying Face Wash for a deep cleansing on my face.  The cleansing and exfoliation helped to remove sebum and impurities, and of course, the dead cells on my skin as well. It also helped to provide more hydration as well as giving me smooth lines on my face! The ...

[service review] HydraFacial by Tiffanie Khoo Medical Aesthetics (TKMA)

Image
Apart from having a good skincare regime, a facial is arguably also essential in maintaining good skin.    A facial treatment helps to rejuvenate and nourish the face and makes skin appear healthier and younger. Although a facial can’t treat severe skin issues, it still is a good treatment to add into your routine for skin care. I am very particular in choosing the correct facial treatments for me due to my sensitive skin. I am glad that  Tiffanie Khoo Medical Aesthetics (TKMA)   arranged a  HydraFacial for me. The HydraFacial is a revolutionary medical treatment which performs 4 distinctive facial rejuvenation procedures in one single 30 minute treatment. It is a 4-step facial treatment that is suitable for all skin types, and it focuses on deep cleansing to remove facial impurities, unclog pores and balance sebum production. It also helps to improve skin texture and reduce fine lines/wrinkles. The HydraFacial’s patented vortex suction tip which was ...

[Part 03] My IDS Journey with IDS Aesthetics - Cryo Therapeutics Treatment (CTT)

Image
It has been almost 1 month plus since I tried the Hydro Therapeutics Treatment(HTT) . I was back again to IDS  Aesthetics  for my skin review and for another round of treatment. As part of my collaboration with IDS , I was supposed to go for a laser therapy. I was thankful that IDS allowed me to change this to a facial treatment, as I am not ready to receive treatments that involve extreme high heat and numbing cream. I was given the  Cryo Therapeutics Treatment (CTT) , and it is suitable for dull and sensitive skin. It is the coldest facial in IDS, as it uses Cryotheraphy Technology to tone up the skin and restore skin firmness. The treatment starts with a double cleansing, first with cleansing milk, and then followed by a refreshing cleanser.  After this a microdermabrasion machine was used to to exfoliate the skin. The next step was the one I disliked the most as it was the extraction process and an amount of pain was to be expected. I dislike this pa...

[part 02] My IDS Journey with IDS Aesthetics - Hydro Therapeutics Treatment (HTT)

Image
I’m a person who does not spend too much time dolling myself up before heading out of the house. My favorite make-up item is eyeliner, and YES, I simply can’t live without it. Therefore having a radiant and healthy skin is a must so that I can put as little coverage on my face as possible. My favorite days are when I can just apply sunscreen and loose powder, and I am good to go! It has been almost 2 months since I started on the skincare products produced by IDS Skincare . (Click here for my part 01 of my IDS journey) I was back to IDS  again   for my skin review and facial treatment.  I am very particular in choosing the correct facial treatments for me due to my sensitive skin. I am glad that IDS has arranged a  Hydro Therapeutics Treatment (HTT) for me.   Dr Ben Yim has been monitoring closely on my pigmentations on my face since my first visit to him. According to him, my skin issue is improving but it's at a snail crawling speed.... He advised me to ...

[service launch] The Science Behind Beauty Workshop at Uber Aesthetics

Image
A couple of weeks ago, Tracy extended her invite to me to attend 'The Science Behind Beauty' Workshop and it was held at the Uber Aesthetics Clinic which has its location at MyVillage , Serangoon Gardens . During the workshop, we were introduced to various treatments which are available at the clinic.   We started off the session with Nose Threading , and it is one of the most popular non-surgical procedures with minimal downtime. This procedure is commonly known as 'lunch time' nose lift, and it only uses ultra-thin threads to be injected into the nose area, in order to achieve a sharper and more defined nasal bridge. The surgical threads are safe to use as they create new collagen within the skin which dissolves over time.     The next treatment was on ' Botox' , which I personally think has a significant level of pain. The demonstration had a patient with a vibrating device placed against his chin in order to distract hi...
